“It is said that the darkest hour of the night comes just before the dawn.” Have faith my Hoosier brother.

I agree - it sucks. But I'd tend to believe more that OSU made it up and leaked this nonsense to embarrass us, hurt us with recruits, transfers, etc. than Dolson picked up the phone and called a conference rival with a coach who has done well so far at OSU to try and get him - that is just ABSURD. Especially when there are plenty of other options out there. There's no way SD is scrambling this badly.

I don't believe that either but understand why you might think so.

Can't argue with that but I don't believe SD reached out to an in conference school.

There is no way we reached out to Holtmann. Could you imagine to arrogance of SD to do that? I feel like the media is just trying to make us look pathetic at this point. Feel like we're getting Ocean 11'd. Something strange is going on. Sources: Jeff Goodman doesn't know ****

Have a VERY hard time believing he reached out to a coach in our own conference who isn't, in any way, on the hot seat. No way that happened.

I'm going to bet there's some FOMO going on. So many players are entering the portal nationwide - it's crazy. I don't think our players have been told anything from Scott Dolson and can't afford to wait any longer to put their name in and see what potential options they have before all the big schools fill their rosters.

SD has had a plan from day 1 and nothing has changed. Even with a massive school with $$ coming into play.

this is the kind of ****** you become when you go to OSU....

Don't think tomorrows rumored announcement came from Chris. Some dude on Twitter.

lolz.....take it easy. Everyone can decide for their own if they want to believe any information - yours included. We don't need information police. You're getting pushback bc you come on here and have this attitude like your information is above everyone else's. I'm going to bet you know nothing either. Let us have our fun. We're all adults here (I think).

I thought it was a joke. I can't believe no one in the room bursted out in laughter. How do you watch that and not? That said.....they did win the game so I guess the horses ran out of the gate.

sounds like a coaching change is in order, no?

Not if Brad/Celtics needed it to be kept quiet. Ah ****, I'm getting suckered into this again.

Damnit. Back to the pile, everyone!

Can we just hire this guy already?

Altman is a great coach, does nothing but win, but there's no way we hire him after his scandal. If you don't know what I'm talking about - google "Dana Altman rape" - it's bad. Real bad. Enfield is someone I'm opening up to.

He literally says what the news will be. Players will be putting their names in the transfer portal or declaring. Am I missing something?

this pleases me

Def not that way in football. I remember Kevin Wilson coaching Oklahomas bowl game like the day after he was announced as our HC.

Nah. There's a flight from Chi to Bloomington today apparently. Billy D. to IU officially back on. (don't ruin my fun)

YESSSS. Billy D. is on his way

If it's Calbert, I'd imagine we know in the next 3-4 days if not sooner. Why wait? Same for Woodson and Beilein - what are they waiting for? I'm still guessing Beard. Don't believe Scott didn't reach out - unless there's something we don't know about him, that would be absolutely nuts to not send out a feeler. We also know the players have no idea either or they wouldn't be mentioning potentially coming back and TJD would have made a decision. You'd think if Scott knew who he was hiring, the players would be one of the first to find out.

He didn't go to IU? If you believe the ridiculous rumors, that's apparently a requirement.

#firebrad Let's get it trending, fellas! If the internet can raise a terrible stock like a million percent in a couple weeks, we can get Brad fired!
